Built for the Swamps, Woods & Long Hunt Days
"I recently picked up the Engel 25 High Performance Hard Cooler, and after putting it through real-world use in South Carolina woods and swamps, I can honestly say it’s built for serious outdoorsmen."
Engel, the original high-performance roto-molded cooler was built for toughness and durability. With a full 2 inches of closed-cell foam insulation in the lid, on the sides, and the bottom, helping to retain cold and ice for up to 8 days.
Unlike the rubber gaskets used by our competitors, Engel's all silicone gaskets create a near airtight seal that is durable and will never lose its shape. The majority of independent reviews consistently rank Engel Coolers as one of the best-rotomolded coolers on the market.

"Just the right size, this cooler will keep my food and drinks cold for several days of camping and fishing trips."
"Pros: Very pleased with the coolers build and quality of construction. Cons: Forgot to order the basket with it and now have to pay $20. 00 extra for shipping???? Also it is not a 25 qt cooler but really is 21 as shown in the fine print."
"Perfect sized for bait like skipjacks! It’s elongated allowing the whole skipjack to lay flat. Perfect for the catfisherman at heart."
"Looks like a heavy duty cooler we will find out this summer when it gets hot. Boat life is healthy for cooler hopefully this will last."
"I recently ordered a couple of coolers . I was impressed by the quality and the customer service was excellent. I received them in 3 business days. I’m using them as boat seats, and the footprint is the same as the seat! Great stuff!"
